mnstang Posted September 26, 2021 Author Share Posted September 26, 2021 While everyone thinks the 93zr special, here's the 93 black Magic catalog. You can see what they chose for their cover! 😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnstang Posted October 17, 2021 Author Share Posted October 17, 2021 (edited) So the 99 power-up 440 I got, I was just going to do rings and minor port clean up. But I ended up doing alot more than I planned. It's either going to be fast, or a turd! At least I'll have the original motor to use if it doesn't work out. I may try to use a 440 liquid pipe and can with it if I can find it cheap. Mod sled, yikes. I got the map light installed on the puma and found out this bag I had is actually a handlebar bag! I got it with the saddlebags and they said it was a windshield bag but it didn't work for that so it's sat around. But I tried it on the handlebars and it was perfect. I shouldn't be as happy as I am about this, but it will be useful and it's just a cool period correct cat accessory. I think I paid an extra$5 for it. I sewed the straps on the saddlebags, and I got a rear rack for it and transferred the original backrest and foam to the rack. I added everything up for the puma and I have just over 600 dollars into it total, I'm pretty pumped on it. It looks so good too.

mnstang Posted November 26, 2021 Author Share Posted November 26, 2021 I was blown away when @airflite1 reached out that he had a nos hood, that I could HAVE! Unbelievable. It will find it's way onto a machine sooner or later but until then I am going to look at it a whole bunch. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnstang Posted November 26, 2021 Author Share Posted November 26, 2021 Scored this sweet little trash can in an auction recently. There's three aws1 jags on this thing, it was in the office at Black Magic when they closed. The boreal backdrop is a nice touch too. You just can't find jag specific memorabilia, what a score! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnstang Posted December 10, 2021 Author Share Posted December 10, 2021 The 96 got new control arm bushings, new shock bushings, and new clutch weight bushings and pins. The more you poke around the more you find, good thing I caught the clutch weight bushings when I did. The front end bushings were totally shot so it should be a better ride now.

Jag workshop with the suspension parts, did you get it all from your local dealer? I noticed looking for parts for my wildcat a lot of parts are NLA.

Yeah most of the parts aren't available from cat any more, but most are still pretty easy to find on eBay and not too bad prices either. I had the shock bushings already for the other sleds but used on the 96 since I had them so I just got 16 more for about$30. If you need ball joints, those are pretty hard to find new. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mnstang Posted December 11, 2021 Author Share Posted December 11, 2021 Yes I've seen it before and talked to the guy a little, was curious about his skis as they have a wide 3.5" spindle which is too wide for most offerings. A few things I'd do differently but interesting little build, he did a couple neat things. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mnstang Posted December 13, 2021 Author Share Posted December 13, 2021 I'd love to have a fan cooled bearcat like that. Or a super jag. But having two utility sleds would be pushing it. Maybe someday the puma will get a 440 and I'll make it a trail sled and then get a super work sled. For now it's working good I did some trapping stuff with it this weekend, lots of seat time and the handlebar light is nice at night, I just keep it on all the time after dark. Not much snow, good thing for fan cooling! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sled_Hed Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 I've been looking at sleds for my son to replace the bravo I sold. He might not have anything to ride this winter with these prices and limited sleds on the market. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a 93 Z local to me now and I'm conflicted on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
